i havent got a downstairs toilet either so todays tasks have been lounge hall and stairs

going for a HHC of wrapping at 3pm if anyone wants to join me.

DS2 is home from school, somethings going wrong in the kitchen so they couldnt cook dinner - resulting in a quick round robin text and children dispached home at lunchtime.

CompBunny

mrs-moneypenny - will join you - not for wrapping but for sorting Christmas bits out of the way and tidying!

Hmmm looks like Ollie has other plans regarding the vets - he has just polished off a bowl of proper cat food, sat and washed himself and is now asleep under the bed. One very alert cat.... Cat's who'd have them

Excellent news.:T Bless his little feline socks.:o

Ds2 is taking steps on his own, 6 is his record so far, it would be lovely if he was walking by christmas/his birthday

:T Well done that young man! You do realise, don't you, that having spent so much time encouraging him to walk and talk, you will then spend the next decade and a half telling him to sit down and shut up.:rotfl:

I'm in as much as the lupus and painful joints will allow this week; though I do NOT need to join the ironing challenge, as Mr LW clears what little we bother ironing every Sunday.:A

Just for a change, I'm going to see what I can actually make of today's official list.:o

I need to be on top of everything this week, as our main celebration day is this Saturday, the Winter Solstice; so I plan to try and follow the official lists if I can this week (sshhhh - don't say that too loud, Coyote may be listening!);)

OH has just informed me he has me a few bits for Christmas for me and I have him nothing Aaaaaggghhhh what a pain he is! I thought I was all done my shopping but guess not now! OH has gone to collect DD from school so I am googling like a mad woman.

Most of the list I am going to complete when the kids are asleep that will be quicker and easier.

Welcome aboard, Wooden Spoon.:beer:

OK folks, I'm signing off for the day, as I have some files I need to transfer to the laptop (I'm currently working on the netbook) prior to the consigning of the XP pc to the Great Scrapheap in the Sky. *cries*

The files are being divided between the Windows 7 pc and the laptop, and I have a little bit of fine-tuning of what's going where to finish (bulk done yesterday).

I also want to get my Brain Training done before Mr LW gets home, because he usually speaks to me while I'm in the middle of the exercises if I do it while he's here. *insert exasperation smilie*.:D
